it was a good game 🎉
🇹🇷🇽🇰
Going on a tangent here but, why on earth does the US team call themselves the USMNT? Just say US or USA, nobody is imagining they will face anyone but the Men's National Team..
My Kosovar brothers will support whoever wins this match at the World Cup. So there are no losers. You deserved to go to the World Cup more than teams from Curaçao or similar clubs. Maybe you couldn't go because of the stupidity of FIFA executives.
The ignorance from the American guy is off the charts, he talks about the respect Kosovans have for Americans but can't understand why they are so friendly with Turks.
I sugest he pickup a book and learn about how Kosova came to be and what role Turks had in it's creation during Ottoman times, the arrogance and ignorance from Americans is of the charts.
Turks and Kosovans are cousins! So sad for us being the impediment of their success as Turks.
Lol who brought in this ignorant fool. He makes no sense whatsoever. "Playing for heart doesnt mean anything" next sentence, "yeah kosovo have alot of spirit which can ve decisive". He should stick to american football or baseball.
Kosova and Türkiye are brother that’s why. You don t understand our root
When hakan Said heart u said no it was about diferent blah blah . When Kosova came u said they have spirit . Which one
Kosova is already independent. We love them greeting from Californian Turkish fella
Lol "expert"….
Congrats to Kosova for thier good play…Türkiye was a very strong opponent for them…Kenan Yıldız is one of the best players on earth now and playing for Türkiye…
So…where would they rank?
I dont know where the confidence of These americans come. Kosovo at Home is a way harder Enemy for turkey than the whole group D.
As Turkish win or lose they are brothers we love Kosova regardless ❤❤❤

I just love marcelos mentality man ! Btw Imma turkish american who loves kosova sooo you can just imagine the dilemma im in 😕
Thx nico, you at least tried to teach this idiot…
Every USA soccer fan should watch this game this match detrmines our Group stage alongside Australia and Paraguay
Kosova will winn inshallah!
OMG could you not have any clue about the history of Kosovo and why Turkiye and Kosovo will always be friends. I wish the commentators did some basic research. How unnerving to hear the American commentator to be surprised by the two federation presidents enjoying dinner together. How much civility can one lack.
Let Americans comment on baseball or something😂
